And when they decide to play both Stephenson and Hampson what happens to Hampson and Griffs scores then?

Pretty sure, Stephensen is on the rookie list...? Correct me if i'm wrong

correct you are

He is. But we do have two vacancies on our senior list.

Surely you wouldn't use it on The Big O? Considering Maric may only be out till Round 6ish... Hampson/Vickery/Griffiths should be sufficient in fulling the vacant role for the first month or so.

Miles will get elevated, not sure on the other. I would rather Banfield, Thomas or Darrou to be elevated.

Nige

I doubt we'd elevate The Big O.

As hawkers said, Hammer/Ty/Griffo should be fine handling the ruck duty.

Thomas and Banfield are more likely to get the nod for the second elevation behind Miles who is looking to be a certain elevation.

LaHug

With Maric out for 5-6 weeks, Hampson will get most of the ruck time with the Tigers. Is anybody looking to take advantage of this with his low price to make some money and upgrade to someone like Goldstein when Maric comes back? Or is Hampson's scoring ability too low?

With Orren Stephenson being elevated would probably finish any thoughts of Hampson for me

Bully

Stephenson will not play unless Hampson gets injured. It's really quite simple. Big O is a workhorse but he has lead in his legs and will get smashed by the high leapers. I'm predicting an 80 average for Hampster leading into the byes, 25-30 hit outs and hopefully a goal here and there.

Carlton played him in the forward line more than the ruck. When he rucked, he killed it.

Not sure whether we'll play all our talls.

Hammer, Vicks, Griff and Orren. It's unlikely we'll play them all. Hammer to ruck, Griff to play down back, Vicks up forward and the two will pinch hit when Hammer has to rest.

Orren is insurance in case things go drastically wrong imo.

Sounds about right.

Didn't scroll back far enough. I swear I went back about 5 or 6 pages. Happens every time I think of something during preseason...... I'll fix my own mistake by merging the threads ;)

I don't want Big O playing unless it's an emergency...

Which really just means we don't want Big O playing!!! No injuries would be nice :)

I don't see O playing at all so Hampson is definitely on the radar.
